Lacey Evans and Natalya wrestled the first-ever women's match in Saudi Arabia
Following WWE's first-ever trip to Saudi Arabia last year, many fans were disappointed that the women of WWE were not allowed to take part. Vince McMahon made it his mission to push women's wrestling into the country and even though he was unable to make the match between Natalya and Alexa Bliss happen back in June at Super ShowDown, history was made at Crown Jewel in October.

It came as a huge shock to many fans when Lacey Evans vs Natalya was announced for the show and they were then able to perform in front of the country for the first time. Nattie and Evans were forced to change up their usual attire, but put on a near-perfect match to end what had been a lengthy feud between the two in the months heading into the show.
Following the match, Evans seemingly turned face when she embraced Natalya following her victory. Both women were overcome with emotion when they realized that their names will now be written in history and the record books for the rest of their lives.
